Savannah Gayborhood Networking

The Stonewall Bar Association’s monthly “gayborhood” dinners are an opportunity for Stonewall Bar members (and their guests) to get together for a casual dinner with whoever shows up that month. “Technically, these are ‘networking events,’” said family law attorney Christie Ayotte Baer, “but they are actually just an opportunity to hang out with other LGBT attorneys in a casual environment. You don’t have to RSVP and you pay for your own food, so you control your tab. It’s possible that only two or three people will show up for the first several months, and that’s fine. We’re following the build it and they will come [out] approach.”

Savannah is the first location outside of metro Atlanta to begin offering these monthly gatherings, but the SBA hopes it will not be the last, as the organization works to expand its membership statewide.

Savannah’s monthly gayborhood dinners will be held on the second Friday of every month from 6:30-7:30 p.m. atYour Pie, 110 W. Bryan St., Savannah, GA 31401.
